							Bali
Once you arrive in Bali, there are several ways to travel around the island. There were so many
interesting place to visit, especially the temples and there was a lot to learn about the religion and the
beliefs of the people.

Denpasar, the capital of the province, is the location of many community templates and the Bali
museum. Batubulan reached in a short drive north-east of Denpasar, is the location of many sandstone
shops.

Celuk is the village just north of Batubulan where gold and silver work for jewelers and ornaments is
done.

The village of Batuan specializes in traditional painting and weaving as well as decorative wooden panels
and screens.

Further north is Mas, many of Bali’s old master woodcarvers still live, work and exhibit their best work of
art. Ubud, an hour’s drive north of Denpasar, is the centre of Balinese painting.

The goa gajah (Elephant Cave) at Bedulu is an eleventh-century monastery bearing many rock carvings,
statues and a bathing pool.

A thousand year-old spring is still used by Balinese in religious ceremonies and for the water’s curative
powers. The active volcano, mount batur, has a beautiful view and you can hire a boat or just enjoy the
scenery.

Besakih, on the slope of mount Agung, is the location of the largest and holiest temple in Bali which one
must not miss. North-west of Denpasar is Tanah Lot, where you can see the most important sea temple.
Sea snakes found at the base of the temple on this rocky island are believed to guard the temple from
evil.
